Today, reports on the health benefits of fresh vegetables appear in the news every week. That's because fresh vegetables contain health-promoting nutrients and phytocehmicals not found in any other type of food. Fresh vegetables supply our body with the essential nutrients needed to efficiently run our cellular metabolism, build healthy tissue and protect us from free-radicals and other toxins. Although research has identified numerous beneficial phytochemicals in edible plants, scientists predict that there may be thousands of other health-promoting phytochemical compounds yet to be discovered.

Research has shown that we should consume five or more servings of fresh vegetables and fruits every day to stay healthy. However, even diets rich in vegetable and fruits may still be lacking in nutrients since comparative analyses have shown that present day commercially grown produce contains significantly fewer levels of nutrients than produce grown before the wide-spread use of pesticides and herbicides.
